About the session

The effective collection and dissemination of real-time data is critical for the efficient operation of water networks and environmental monitoring. The 18 Water Management Organisations who sponsor the WITS project aim to improve the cost-effectiveness of telemetry and SCADA systems through development of a standard data transmission protocol to meet 21st century needs. This project is now reaching a crucial milestone, with compatible products from six suppliers due for release this year. This could transform your approach to the collection of asset information.
